I have a file that I've been wanting to delete but it has been giving me error 0x80004005: Unspecified Error. I've seen some advice for deleting it via command prompt but they assume that the directory would be in Local Drive C:. So how do I navigate the directory towards another Local Drive via the command prompt, because the default location is C:\Users\<username>
 
Solution


To go to the root of another drive...
drive letter, colon, return

Like this, to go to the E drive

[strike]I did what you showed me but it says the syntax for the command is incorrect. I believe it couldnt be done because technically the system was scanning inside C:\Users\<username> which is in local drive C. I need to get to Local Drive G first.
